Markle on a water project in Rwanda: “These girls are able to stay in school, because they don’t have to walk hours each day to get water, and this water source has changed the entire community. It’s not just about clean drinking water, it’s about education.”2/ pic.twitter.com/vJ58OnaoXk

Markle at Grenfell community kitchen: “I had just recently moved to London and felt immediately embraced by the women in the kitchen. Also, to be in this city & to see, in this one small room, how multicultural it was. I feel so proud to live in a city with so much diversity”4/ pic.twitter.com/iu0Hzv2bU0

Markle on donating: “Community is going through your closet and saying, this is the blazer I wore when I nailed my first job interview. I don’t need it now because I’m where I want to be, but if I can share that blazer and be part of another woman’s success, that’s community”5/ pic.twitter.com/YF43IkbWF1

Markle on empowerment: “I hear a lot of people saying, when speaking of girl’s empowerment, ‘You’re helping women find their voices’ and I fundamentally disagree with that, because women don’t need to find their voice, they have a voice, they need to feel empowered to use it”6/ pic.twitter.com/MQBQ7IlzkA

As a republican, this was a strange thread to put together. I don’t follow the Royals, and I didn’t know much about Markle before I watched a load of videos today. But now I understand why so many idiots hate her: she’s a decent woman.
